A Review of Sports-Related Soft Toys for Tiny Tots

Is dad or big brother or sister a sports fan, or does your family participate in sports? The littlest family members love to imitate and these sports-related soft toys are just the thing for little brother/baby sister to feel a part of the sports world the rest of the family enjoys.When a new baby is born, how many times have you heard the new dad say "I'm going to get him a bat and ball and teach him baseball" (or football or basketball). Or the big brother who plays soccer has a little brother or sister who wants to play too.

The regular sized sports equipment is too big for little ones to use. And babies & toddlers need toys that are soft for safety.The sports toy suggestions presented here are just the thing for the smallest family members.

First Sports Bag

This 5-piece playset is recommended for ages 6 months to 5 yearsIt's never too early to start practicing to be an all-star! Perfect for one of baby's first toys and other younger siblings who want to imitate the big brother or sister who is into ball sports!

This soft-sided bag includes a soft baseball that crinkles, a basketball that rattles, a soccer ball that boings, and a football that squeaks. The balls all fit inside a colorful bag complete with touch and close fasteners for secure storage.Baby Gund My First Sports Bag is a fun stuffed sports-related toy for babies and toddlers.

My First Golf Bag

A Sporty Plush Playset for ages one month to 5 years

The next pro golfer in your family can start to practice at an early age with this four-piece playset that has a soft 6" golf bag with touch and close fastener, a plush golf club, a tee and a ball that rattles.

First Tackle Box

This plush tackle box toy is recommended for children from 6 months to 5 years

Is grandpa or dad a fisherman? Kids want to watch when grandpa is tying flies for his fly fishing trip or dad is checking out his tacklebox for a fishing day at the lake. Give your toddler his very own tackle box that is soft and safe for him to play with while you are working with yours. This plush toy tackle box is just the right size for the youngest anglers, measuring about 7" long and 4" high. It also has a handle for carrying around.

Three soft play pieces come with the tackle box and fit inside. There is a cute plush worm that crinkles, a little blue fish that squeaks, and, of course, a fishing pole. The fishing pole has a red bobber that has a touch & grab white ring which makes it easy for baby to 'catch' the fish!

What a great gift idea for toddlers! The little ones really do want to be part of all the fun. I seen several young children try to pick up a basketball just so they could "play" too. I especially love the fishing set. A very unique gift idea for sure.

Oh these are so much fun Miss Elf. I could see some of these making a baby shower gift, one that is really different than another onesie. The look on the new mom and dad's faces would be priceless. Thanks for doing a great review.

The daddy of our expected-soon first grandson (Jack) has always loved both watching and playing sports, so chances are that Jack will be a fan, too. Love the sports balls and the My First Sports Bag. Can't wait to start buying toys like these!
